The first Asian Workshop on Symmetric Key Cryptography - ASK 2011
To promote research on symmetric key cryptography (block ciphers, stream ciphers, hash functions, analysis, designs, proofs and implementations of these primitives etc) in Asia, we started the first ASK workshop as a meeting for researchers from Asia. This year, the workshop will be held inside the Nanyang Technological University campus, Singapore on 29, 30 and 31 August 2011. The program contains mainly two parts, each morning for 3 invited talks, and afternoon for group discussions. This workshop targets mainly for students and young researchers to learn and work in small interest groups.
Interested Asian-based (including Australia) researchers are welcome to contact us for participance. Limited number of stipend for plane ticket may be available for PhD students who have difficulty obtaining funding.

Nanyang Technological University,
21 Nanyang Link, Singapore 637371.
We have negotiated price at the Nanyang Executive Center, located inside the NTU campus at 60 Nanyang View, Singapore 639673. From the Changi airport to NEC, there are two routes:
-
taxi, with cost about 30-50 Singapore dollars depending on the time.
-
Take MRT, and alight at pioneer station, and then take bus No. 179 and alight at Canteen 2 of NTU (exact amount shall be paid with cash on bus). NEC is in 200 meters from the bus stop. This route costs about 4 Singapore dollars.
The price is 10% discount from the original price, plus an additional 10% service charge and 7% goods and services tax.
To book, follow the guide here, and quote "SPMS" in "school and department" section. Ensure your reservation is done fast, NEC is generally filled up quickly.
The hotel is located about 1.4 km from the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, it takes about 20 mins walking. There are also free NTU buses (route C) between NEC and SPMS.
Hotels outside the campus are generally far from NTU but close to the city center, such as Chinatown Hotel,
Hotel 1929,
The Inn at Temple Street, The Keong Saik Hotel,
Robertson Quay Hotel.
